I think an interesting one is Ben Brown. Has been a lock all year but has slowed down a little come seasons end.

If he wins the Coleman he's in, if he finishes second does he make it with Hawkins, J Riewoldt & Buddy all having as good a season?
If you can keep your head when all around you have lost theirs, then you probably haven't understood the seriousness of the situation.

From Richmond

Locks- Dusty & Jack Riewoldt
In Discussion- Rance, Caddy (has come storming home after a quiet mid season), Grimes, Short & even Edwards perhaps as a HF role.

Would expect 3 to get a gig from Tigerland

Grundy or Gawn for first ruck? Obviously I lean to the former.

They should both get in, IMO. I know there has been a trend to only select one Ruckman in the final team, but this year both deserve to be in, with one named on the bench.

AA selectors are much more qualified than the safooty team selectors so i think they can manage that

Kudos to you though, at least you've had a crack at a full team.

HF- D Smith J Riewoldt (vc) Caddy/Gunston
C- Gaff Cripps Sidebottom
HB- Hurn (c) J Mcovern Whitfield
B- Laird Rance Lloyd/ Stratton/ Grimes

Int- Grundy Martin
Raffle between Higgins/ Beams/ Mcraee/ Danger for last spots
